    But if price is good, no harm... looks decent enough especially when this is getting thinner and thinner and thinner into the thin air... ;-)

    How hard is it to source an age appropriate crown for these?

    Extremely tough.
    The truth is, the nato star crown has no intuitive indication that it is a Zenith. So many sellers may not even know what they have.

    However the modern replacement is not that difficult to find. Just that the dimension is slightly different, lending a different look too.

    The modern crown is slightly thicker and smaller in diameter.
